  A zoomable, searchable archive of BYTE magazine2025 · byte.tsundoku.io · ▲423

  A while ago I was looking for information on a obscure and short lived British computer.

  Linux sysadmin course, eight years on▲780

  Almost eight years ago I launched an online “Linux sysadmin course for newbies” here at HN. It was a side-project that went well, but never generated enough money to allow me to fully commit to leaving the Day Job.
